How Does Eyelid Lift Surgery Procedure Work?
Invisible scar: the cut is hidden in the natural eyelid crease. Long-lasting results: up to 10 years. Unmatched expertise: performed by a highly skilled oculoplastic surgeon.
After careful assessment, the surgeon marks the natural eyelid crease and removes a tailored amount of redundant skin and, if indicated, a fine strip of muscle or fat. Every effort is made to preserve tissue that supports normal closure and natural contour.
The incision is closed with delicate sutures and covered with light dressings. Patients use lubricating drops and cold compresses in the first few days to reduce swelling and dryness. Most return to desk-based activity within several days as advised.
The surgery is performed by an oculoplastic surgeon, Dr Shah-Desai, who uses a signature "Zip Stitch" technique to minimise scarring.
